the drinks are good and not weak but the crowd makes me not like this bar. it's an older crowd of extremely obnoxious and loud people. they have added a tv showing sports and now blast music that all the drunks scream along to.

Very cool little hidden secret! It took me a few days to find this. Great place to grab a drink and watch the game without having to get out of the pool. Then up the stairs from the bar is a hot tub with a great view of the ocean. I recommend buying the souvenir cups because its like the best adult drinking cup in the pool!

My biggest problem with the Grotto Bar is that they serve food and you can eat in the water. Um that's gross. I witnessed nacho sauce and salad dressing being dripped inadvertently in the pool--straight up ew.

My girlfriend and I took an escape from our endless hours work in Hotels in Newport Beach to come to Hawaii. Checking into the Grand was amazing enough, having Wayne behind the bar at the Grotto Bar made our trip truly an experience. He offered suggestions of activities and dining in the area. Great service and managed the volume that swam up to the bar so that he still acknowledged the existing guests. Overall great trip and kudos to Wayne, staff is the key to making a resort what it really is. Cheers!

Well, first, let me say we didn't really stay at the Grand Wailea but we really really wanted to visit the Grotto Bar. With that said, I don't know if we were allowed in, but the bartender was friendly and never questioned it. The GW might want to clarify if non GW stayers could go in. To get there, we had to trek through the resort grounds and dip into their smaller pools. Once there, swim up into the grotto and you'll see a bar with maybe about 6 seats at the bar, and 2 smaller cozy corners. This place is awesome. It's cool, has a lil breeze, and has waterfalls in the corners providing a grotto experience. The bartender is friendly and they take cash!

Grotto bar was my and it seemed everyone else's favorite at the resort. There's several tv's, booze, and water seating... what's not to love? Personally, I really liked their blended drink menu selection much more than any other bar on the resort. I pretty much stuck to their mango mojito (dairy free and blended - a hard combo to find at Wailea) for the rest of the trip. Though when I discovered the other bars would make the drink I didn't head to the Grotto after as much ;D Also, just a tip, but their food selection is exactly the same as Volcano bar - so if you simply want the food, you can just go around the corner for the same fare. It's a pretty cool concept, though honestly the biggest issues I saw were that they should really double staff the Grotto (and maybe they do during the heavy season) and even though there's signage of 21+ only people still bring their children in the bar. Seriously. People do not want to watch TV and have their drink with your mini me's jumping off the tables and rocks (also not allowed) and splashing everyone. Which happened at least 3 times while I was there. The bartender finally spoke up after I visibly cringed after having my face splashed - but none of the other times was it enforced. Especially since the Grotto is right after and right before a water slide. I really loved the drinks at this bar and it was possibly the only space I enjoyed a blended drink from the menu at, but after finding they would make the drink elsewhere the novelty wore off a bit... still pretty fun while it lasted though!

Nestled among the Lazy River pool at the Grand Wailea and tucked under a waterfall lies the Grotto Bar. It's not often that you get the chance to grab a cocktail and then meander through the currents in an inner-tube, but the Grand Wailea gives you the shot. Drinks are pricey, but when you are on vacation, whoever was ballin on a budget? Get the pineapple mug or tiki cup for $22 and refills are only $15. Not only are you saving money price-wise, the cups are bigger and enclosed so you can cross the waterfall without your drink getting drenched and its much easier to handle when you're floating about the pools. Are the drinks the greatest? No, but they are a tasty libation and a refreshing concoction to enjoy as you experience fun in the sun!

Dude, it's a bar in a pool under a waterfall. Pretty snazzy. But plan to pay $14 for drinks, if not more. They're interesting drinks, though, including blended cocktails. It's fun, but crowded, with kind of loud music. It's a little chlorinated. You have to wade your butt over. But come on, it's a tiny bar. In a pool! Under a waterfall! This is Kodak moment stuff. Bring a waterproof camera. Order a drink. Relax under the sun. My only regret is that we bought the plastic $22 pineapple mug (bigger refills) thinking we would go back on our last day, but it rained, so it was kind of a wash. I'll always remember the Grotto, and booping around in a large maze of swimming pools with a giant mixed drink.

I have been waiting to come to this Grotto bar for over a year! Long overdue, and definitely did not live up anticipations. First off, obviously, the drinks are way higher priced than what they should be. I knew that swimming in. I chose the pineapple mug, because when you are celebrating, money ain't a thang! $22 bucks vs $15 bucks. When you are paying $15 a cocktail, what's the difference. Cocktails were all really sweet, but got the job done. What wasn't kosher, was the fact that people were eating, right there in the water. French fries, crumbs, and hot dog pieces were getting dropped in the water by the tipsy ones posted up on the stools. The water doesn't circulate well were the front of the bar is, and the water was noticeably hotter than a couple feet away. Either people were heating up the area with the world famous 'Peeter Heater' or they have a heater there. Either way, the feeling was unsettling, so we grabbed our booze and floated outta there.

Can you get any better than a swim-up bar in a pool as fantastic as that at the GWR? Pretty much, the answer is no. They have a full bar, great blended drinks, a full menu, and a few TVs. Warm weather, swimming, sports, and alcohol. It doesn't get better than that.

I have made it to one or two swim up bars in my life, this one definitely hits the top of the list. It is located in a cave inside the amazing pools at the GW (I reviewed the hotel separately). There is a swim up bar with some bar stools as well as a few additional tables inside the water around the cave. The bartender was super fun and friendly. He sold us on the Pineapple, it is a plastic Pineapple that can later be used as a coin container (or take up space in your suitcase then later sit in your closet?). You pay a few bucks extra for it the first time but as long as you keep it with you get a larger drink each time you use it. It is almost like paying for one drink and getting a double. So if you are going to have a few drinks it's a good way to go. You can order food here as well and we didn't do this but it looked like your typical pool food, burgers, nachos etc.

Five stars mostly cause if you're staying at Grand Wailea, or paying $95 per day for a day pass -- might as well experience all they have to offer, right? And play out your role-playing professional athlete & playboy fantasy in your head for a few minutes... Yes, keep it in your head... ;) I think my boyfriend was more excited about the "grotto bar" than I was. Every moment he kept saying, "Let's go to the Grotto Bar!" like a kid about to go to a candy store. I jokingly asked him if he was a nba star and he said "Yes, and you're my playboy bunny." No need to worry, folks. Just friendly banter, we were beyond tame at the Grotto Bar :) The nicest swim-up bar I've ever experienced. The bar is in a cave with waterfalls. A few crevices where you can sit down on enjoy that premium drink. I brought my pineapple container that I bought early in the week for $22 to get $15 refills (at double the volume). There's also access to a jacuzzi. There's a bridge walkway behind the grotto so you don't have to pass through the waterfall pouring over your head. But the jacuzzi was always filled with children... So your best bet for a jacuzzi is the Hibicus Adult-only pool. Again, I wouldn't come to Grand Wailea for the Grotto Bar itself but may as well make a pit stop if you paid for the Grand Wailea experience.

I am reviewing this because my next door neighbor told me she went because I spoke so glowingly of Maui, the GW pool and Hawaii in general. Yes I stayed at the GW. See review. yelp.com/biz/grand-waile… I loved the hotel and pool. I loved that the pool and bar area was clean and not full of drunken vomit like the swim up bars in the Caribbean are. As a part of your vacation it is a nice option. Being from NYC which is half way around the globe , when I travel to Hawaii I want to experience the culture, food and people. I don't want to just sit at the pool like a drunken fool! You can't experience Hawaii that way! If that is what you want, go to the Caribbean!

A fun little cave bar in a pool under a water fall. (I didn't see all that many patrons leaving their perch to head to the restrooms for a pee break. I tried to make this thought stay out of my mind.) Rich was a fabulous and friendly bartender. Yummy, incredibly expensive drinks, but that's to be expected at GWR. Fun times with friends can't wait to go back....first must replenish the bank.
(4)Chris M.
We had fun but the whole resort is showing wear and tear. They need to spend some money on the place, especially when they haven't cut the prices of the drinks.
(3)Charlene D.
The bartender, Richard, is THE BEST!!! Just the friendliest guy you will ever meet, service with a smile every time, very prompt...and you tell him your name once and he'll remember it next time you come around. Richard, you rock and we look forward to coming back soon! Thanks for your excellent service!

I've vacationed at several resorts in the Hawaiian Islands by far the funnest bar is the the swim up Groto Bar at Grand Wailea. Located in a cave with a backside waterfall the Groto Bar is the party hot spot located in the GW resort.. If you don't loud music, loud fun people and and TV's than avoid this bar. When ordering your first drink make sure to purchase it in the GW plastic pineapple. So remember quiet Hawaiian holiday Groto Bar bad-Want to party and drink with some crazy fun people Groto Bar Good.

Love this place: the drinks, the atmosphere, the bartenders -- love it all!
(5)Sereia C.
REALLY??!! Why are you reading reviews on this?? It's a grotto bar. A swim-up only cave-like bar with waterfalls in paradise. There's alcohol. Get your bronzed ass there immediately.

$19 bacon cheeseburger burger cooked in a convection oven? Really? Only can order it medium well.
(2)Matt P.
If you could get off Pirates of the Carribean halfway through and have a mixed drink, the bar would probably look something like this. Located under a waterfall in one of the many pools of the Grand Wailea, this swim-up bar is the perfect place to get wasted without the added complication of having to towel off first. Or after. Or ever.
(5)Regan C.
This swim up swimming pool was cool. Like the first reviewer said, its right under a waterfall - which is a nice scene by itself. Clean pool area, grab a drink quickly, and keep on swimming!
